    Haven't had an Edifice for more than 10 years...time to buy one, this watch looks awesome and also like all the functionality!

      These updates are so far advanced from the older ones. This is the best one in my opinion.

    A very comprehensive overview of the watch, and a well explained walkthrough of its features, thank you for this. I’m particularly a fan of the black/blue with black stainless steel combo, hope to get this soon! ✨

    Im thinking to go for Edifice. But i have 1 doubt. Are Solar-powered powered watches reliable ?

    • @DougFNJ
      @DougFNJ  Год назад

      It's a great choice. I have found solar movements VERY reliable. As long as you keep them exposed to a light source, they are good to go. I have solar watches that I still haven't had to change a batter on 15 years later.

    Great and thorough review. I was considering this watch until I saw the bad visibility of the LCD screens from any angle other than straight up. That's a no go for me. Maybe they'll make a version with white LCDs or MIP LCDs then I'll reconsider. Thanks.

    Very nice review, just bought the ECB-10 , very similar except for its a bit bigger and no solar .
    I hope casio digs deeper in Bluetooth functionality to compete with todays smart watch’s , keeping this style , no screen and with health stuff and recharging methods , I’m sure lots of people will go for it and I’m one of them

  • @АлександърКелесис

    Hello Sir, thank you for the great review of the watch. I'm going to buy some classy/sporty watch for official and everyday usages, and I wonder between this model and EQB-1200D-1A. Do you have review of eqb too, or if u have opinion for this watch i will be glad to hear it, nevermind if it would be just based on your greater experience in watches for sure!

    • @DougFNJ
      @DougFNJ  Год назад

      Thank you. The ECB has been my all time favorite Edifice. I did reviews on 2 EQB’s. Both very nice, and very thin.

      Hey Robert, congratulations! Negative displays are most visible in better lighting conditions. I try to optimize my lights for the best views on camera, but in room lighting it will tend to be dimmer than outdoor in daylight which should be ideal.

    It's a really nice looking watch. It reminds me of a Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster A-T. Having the phone app is a HUGE bonus. I've had a couple of Citizen Promaster and Skyhawk watches and getting through the digital screens for any reason is a real PITA. Casio seems to have solvved that problem.

      a) the digital display is absolutely useless(tiny + unreadable). Which makes the watch a basic anaolg watch with childishly mascaraded dial.
      b) the "transformes-supeheroes" styling of the dial does not look goog with classy casing, plus makes it harder to read even the analog time)
